Before the happy clappers inevitably start having a go at you, I was there today and agree with your whole post.

You must be pleased with the point though?
Really horrible is going all that way and coming back empty handed.
Fair play to you for putting in 10 hours on a bus, I think I'd rather be water-boarded than suffer that.
I must admit I feared we might go for a cricket score today but thanks to Jack it wasn't like that in the end.
It is a huge worry how little we create though. We have almost ceased to exist offensively this season and we don't seem to be getting any nearer to finding an answer.

Thanks for the back up, ill get over it after my next couple of beers, dust meesen down and get ready for next week, but really not enjoying this season. A point and a clean sheet away from home mustn't be scoffed at, yes. But what I find hugely deflating and disappointing is going all that way to see such an uninspiring performance going forward. We were crying out for Diouf in the second half but yet again MH took off all our attacking flair and killed any hope we had of nicking a winner. Bayern is getting ripped into on the other thread but let's be honest, Affelay has been crap all season and was crap again today. Keeps the ball but achieves nothing with it. What has Stephen Ireland done wrong? Was pivotal in the game at Spurs yet has been lately frozen out since. Every time we have a chance to counter at pace the wingers slow the game down to walking pace, pass backwards and allow the opposition defence to reset and it's infuriating to watch. Players like Shaq and Arnie should just ping their ears back and have a go.

Would be worse going there and losing 5-1
Always something to complain about.

If you think that was a shocking day out you've not been following Stoke long.
Fucks sake.
Some right fucking shite hawks follow our team these days.
Try getting soaked to the skin on an open terrace watching us get a right thumping. Today is nowhere close.

We're wank and we look toothless, money wasted again on the club I love, but it's starting to get boring now.

I only watched the first half but thought we looked a good side,just lacking the final ball or correct decision in the final third.It will come .

Nigel made it sound really exciting on the radio so you're clearly very hard to please.

Thought our support sounded very vocal from watching on stream.
I wouldn't call it woeful, there have been worse performances this season, let alone of the years.
We are performing well in away games for the first time in a decade, if you are a regular attendee away from home, surely you must have witnessed some shocking performances since the mid 2000's? This was nowhere near them.

We should be slapping these teams like Newcastle away from home, get a fucking grip Hughesy!

It was a very good point. Hughes has improved our play enormously but we really have been shite to watch lately. Error strewn rubbish interspersed with technically good but insipid stuff in nothing areas of the pitch.
I'm not sure what it is we're trying to do.

Crikey, the guy just said he has a wank day out. Haha. Does it really need the full on you cant have been watching stoke long, knee deep in piss, no pies, grimsby/nuneaton/telford (insert shit club name here) away business.

One defeat away from home all season at Arsenal. If today was a shocking away day, I must have been hallucinating some of the away-day shit shows I've seen us serve up over the last seven seasons in the Premier League....not to mention the pre-glory days of getting routinely embarrassed at shit holes like Wigan, Shrewsbury and Gillingham to name but a few.
Fair play for braving the 10 hour bus ride, but lets be honest, its a long time aince we've had it so good away from home.

Just got back as well and Would have to disagree about the atmosphere though.Thought we were quality for a good portion of the game but died down mid second half.
